Hello
There's nothing built in on Stripe that would be useful here.
You'd want to geolocate the user based on their IP address/browser locale and assume that's their location & navigate them through your application accordingly

Hello

You'd want ...
what?
I have my user's country according to the IP that nginx forwarded to me from them, but I want to send them to the subscription page in their own local currency, so they pay and start the subscription in their local currency
A support person recommended that I use adaptive pricing but that doesn't work for subscriptions
raw kelp
That's correct. You'd need to use manual currency pricing - https://docs.stripe.com/payments/currencies/localize-prices/manual-currency-prices
gentle stream
i gonna try
tskk
tkss
But from what I saw here this is just for me to test the checkout as if I were a customer from another country, so if the price is already configured for multi currencies does Stripe do the detection automatically?
If I activate a VPN and test will I already see the price in another currency?
raw kelp
Yes
you should be able to test it out
The difference between the two is:
- Adaptive pricing converts the currency based on FX rate automatically
- Manual pricing doesn't automatically convert. You define how much you want to charge for that product in other currency and Checkout will only localize
gentle stream
So I don't need to have a price for each type of currency? If I have a price that accepts various types will it automatically be redirected to their own currency?
raw kelp
You need to define the price for each currency type you want to support. Checkout will just "use that price"
raw kelp
Let's say you have a product that costs $10 USD
- Adaptive pricing will automatically convert 10 USD to 10 EUR based on FX rate at the time and present that to the customer in EU
- Manual pricing won't convert. It will use the price you define in
eurand when Checkout detects EU customer, it'll present the price you define
NP! Also, you don't need to use a VPN to test this.
You can use the flow with the custom email - https://docs.stripe.com/payments/currencies/localize-prices/manual-currency-prices?payment-ui=stripe-hosted#testing-checkout
